Year after year, Flavors of the West delivers more of what you want. More food. More music. More friends.. More “Flavors”.

This year, Flavors will again be hosted in Litchfield Park, alongside the historic community on Old Litchfield Rd.

On March 24, 2017, the community will experience a good day of fun, food samplings from over 30 West Valley hot spots, music and entertainment. Guests will experience a festival unlike any other – and some of the best “Flavors” of the West Valley.

But the event does so much more than raise awareness for the local West Valley food scene. Each year, Flavors of the West selects a local charity partner to receive our event proceeds. In 2017, the spotlight is on The Honey Foundation, a local charity focused on Kindness.

The Honey Foundation now provides a Kindness Education Program for K-12 Schools. Their programs help students understand the broad importance of Kindness in our World, and how Kindness leads to success in life. So far, THF’s Kindness Education Program has already reduced extreme disciplinary action by over 50% in 2 years.

Flavors of the West 2018 will help The Honey Foundation raise money to support Kindness Education Programs in schools here in Arizona and all across the United States. Since 2015, Schools in 6 U.S. States are using THF Kindness programs to enrich their curriculum and reduce K-12 disciplinary actions. THF looks forward to continuing their mission of spreading kindness all over the World. Support THF online at http://www.honeyfoundation.org.

At Flavors, guests will enjoy Culinary Samples, Celebrity Chefs, Cooking Demos, Dueling Pianos, Live Music, Beer Garden, Bars, Treats, and more. In 2018, guests should expect more action, special events, and some new and exciting restaurants to sample.

Event details are coming together. Restaurants are lining up their menus. Local artists are putting together their set lists. Chefs are sharpening their knives and guests are already licking their chops to taste the best Flavors of the West has to offer on March 24, 2018.
